CleanPowerSF Community Solar Sponsor Webinar

The San Francisco Public Utilities Commission (SFPUC) is hosting two webinars on CleanPowerSF’s new Community Solar program for San Francisco non-profit and community-based organizations. The Community Solar program requires that a local organization partner with the developer of new solar installation in San Francisco to help advertise the project and assist individuals and families with enrolling into the Community Solar program. The two webinars will specifically focus on the Community Solar program and explain the benefits of becoming a Community Sponsor, eligibility, how it works, etc.

Please register for one* of our two upcoming sessions:

• Community Solar Sponsor Webinar #1: 8/31/21 12 - 1 p.m.
• Community Solar Sponsor Webinar #2: 9/2/21 5:30 - 6:30 p.m.

*Both meetings will cover the same content, so please only register for one session.

If you have any questions about the meetings, please email Jackie Randazzo at jrandazzo@sfwater.org.

Please forward this email to other non-profit or community-based organizations in your network.

About the Community Solar Program

CleanPowerSF’s Community Solar program will provide 100% renewable electricity to participants from a new solar project in San Francisco and a 20% discount on their monthly electric bill. This program will be available to San Franciscans living in disadvantaged communities (DACs) within five miles of the new solar installation. The solar project will be located on a building so no residential solar installation is required. The program is expected to tentatively launch in 2023.

About CleanPowerSF and the SFPUC

The SFPUC launched CleanPowerSF in 2016 with a mission to provide San Francisco residents and businesses with clean, renewable electricity at competitive rates. CleanPowerSF now serves about 380,000 customer accounts in San Francisco. Along with CleanPowerSF, the SFPUC operates Hetch Hetchy Power, which provides 100 percent greenhouse gas-free energy to public facilities such as City Hall, schools and libraries, some private commercial developments, and affordable housing. Collectively, the two systems meet over 70 percent of the electricity demand in San Francisco.
